Blue Skies Smilin' At Me......

.......Nothin' but blue skies do I see.

I am quick enough to moan when the weather is cold and wet, so it is only right that I celebrate a lovely day.  Lots of things are beginning to flower in the garden now.  The magnolia is not fully open yet but loved the way it looked against the sky.  The leaves on the large tree are all in bud, the Flowering Currant and the Kerria Japonica always bloom together. The Stella Magnolia has started to open and a brave stripy Tulip, who was in a pot last year and planted out when finished, has survived all that winter could throw at it and is in flower, while it's companions did not make it.
